Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara has abandoned the Peoples Democratic Party and crossed over to the All Progressives Congress, marking one of the most significant political shifts in the state in recent years. He made the declaration during a stakeholders’ gathering at the Government House in Port Harcourt, where he confirmed his decision before party leaders and government officials.
The defection places him among the growing circle of high-profile figures who have moved to the APC this year, signalling a widening realignment ahead of the next electoral cycle. His choice is expected to reshape political calculations in Rivers State and may influence alliances across the South South.
